Background: Endotracheal/endobronchial metastases represent an extremely rare catego-ry of diseases, lacking population-based incidence studies. These metastases are generally classified into two types: pulmonary and nonpulmonary. Pulmonary metastases are consid-erably rarer than their nonpulmonary counterparts. Case Report: We present a rare case of tracheal metastasis, diagnosed during a follow-up two years after the anatomical resection of early-stage lung cancer. This case was success-fully treated. Conclusion: Tracheal metastases after lung cancer surgery are exceedingly rare. Patients of-ten exhibit radiological findings before becoming symptomatic. Therefore, bronchoscopic evaluation is recommended when radiological and clinical suspicions arise.
